22:48Garry KellerGUEST
And the flip side is the Carney government has, until election day, has been very steady, going steady, if you will, with Christine Frechette and the CAC, you know, Charles Milliard and not the Liberals, because dance with the ones that brung you, and they're the ones that the dance, they have to dance with.
G
23:06Garry KellerGUEST
And they've been doing that work directly while not, you know, heavily engaged with the PLQ in Quebec.

She would cut people off.
T

R
10:40Raphaël MelançonGUEST
It's more superficial because we have five leaders.
R
10:42Raphaël MelançonGUEST
It all comes down to the personality, the personality of the, of the leaders and the impression they left.
R
10:47Raphaël MelançonGUEST
And I would say probably Charles Milliard, to me, appeared like the, the one who was the most in control of all main leaders, of, of PSPP, Fréchette, and Milliard.
R
10:56Raphaël MelançonGUEST
I would say Milliard really appeared like he was, uh, uh...

10:07Aaron RandHOST
And the terrible numbers that Charles Milliard has with francophones.

Did the Quebec election debates move the needle? Plus: Canada’s slow march towards the European Union.

Frechette has declined to say how she would vote on sovereignty referendum, but she repeatedly warned that St. Plamondon's plans could destabilize Quebec and harm its economy.
J

Frechette even brought up the issue as she faced off one-on-one against some of the other party leaders about unrelated issues, prompting Quebec voters liberal leader Charles Milliard to remind her she was going off topic.

Right now you're debating me, Milliard said.

That, of course, is Charles Milliard, the question from our own Matt Gilmore after last night's debate.

A
0:25Aaron RandHOST
Jim, I'd said earlier when we asked the question, which I will come back to, who you think did well, was there a knockout, did anybody win? I know the poll this morning in the journal after the debate says PSPP won.
A
0:35Aaron RandHOST
Just, if we can, tell me, based on what you saw last night, let me start the other way around.
A

How did you think Charles Milliard did?

I heard, I think it was Charles Milliard talking about something within the health sector where he talked about telehealth.
A
7:16Aaron RandHOST
Are you familiar with what he had said about wanting to kind of roll this out across the province, ultimately have this?
J
7:21Joel TurnerGUEST
Well, I mean, telehealth is a generic term.
No knockout punches in a boisterous debate. Plus: Residents in St. Henri fight over supervised drug use sites.

I appreciated that.
E
12:35Elias MakosHOST
But Rudy, for me, to what Meeker's saying, I feel like last night, too often when Charles Milliard was talking, it was about some social program or some idea they have, and I was like, dude, You're the Liberal Party.
E
12:47Elias MakosHOST
Convince everyone that you will make our economy sing.
